The latest victim of the Grenfell fire disaster to be identified is believed to be one of the youngest to die in the blaze.

Two-year-old Jeremiah Deen has been formally identified as one of the more than 80 people who died in the tower block, the Metropolitan Police said.

His mother, 32-year-old Zainab Deen, was confirmed at an inquest in July to have also died.
